Bluebell banks
The last day of the sunniest, hottest April I have ever known in the UK, and the last of the daffodils give way to banks of bluebells at Dunham Massey, with the lovely Orangery in the background.
Can I ask a dumb question? WHy are they called an 'orangerie'? I think they are totally gorgeous. I always love the shade of brick and the shape of the windows is to die for.
